This blog was created for others who will hopefully glean something from the words I have written.Not much to say except I ran off from an orphanage when I was 13 years old.Hopped on a freight train and joined the circus.Have been wandering ever since.I am grateful to be alive and my only desire is to leave something here for others to gain from.If I can accomplish that then I have successfully reached my intended goal.All we have left in the end is our legacy.

"Perpendicular Bottles"

I know I will always be lovedUntil the end of timeWhether I die desolate in the streetOr quietly in my bedMessages in bottles strewnAlong the beachesReaching those who find themSuch words writtenThat beam with lightAfterwards they knowEverything will be alrightWhat has been sought in the debriVital messages meant only for one earIt is the way out of their fearMy recompense for uprooting lifeGently planting seeds in bottlesCasting them upon the oceansWherever I may beHow many will grow from thisThat I will never seeIt is rather the plantingThat brings satisfactionNature will do the restDiscarded empty bottles remainAs vessels that retainEmpty hollow bottlesThat capture the heart momentarilyDestroying all their pain
